10/10
A great show

What can I say that hasn't been said about this show? It's a classic. I haven't seen all of the episodes but the ones I have are clever even today. The premise is simply Kermit running the muppet show while dealing with the many whacky characters from the diva Miss Piggy who's smitten with him to his friend Fozzie, an upbeat yet unfunny comedian who gets heckled by Statler and Waldorf who sit in the balcony. Many of the guest celebrities bring something new to the table in terms of comedy skits. One skit I remember involved Rene Moreno who playfully beats up an adult sized muppet in a bar.

As old as this show is it still holds up. The muppets still looks great. When they move they feel alive still. Most of the jokes are still funny even today. In the first episode Fozzie tries to rob a bar only to be thwarted at every turn leading to an hilarious buildup. With that being said if you life the Muppets then you'll definitely enjoy this. Take it for what it's worth and check it out.
